.TH CHECK-HOSTNAME 8 "Mar 8, 2006"
.SH NAME
check-hostname \- check if sendmail can determine the system's fully-qualified
host name
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fB /usr/sbin/check-hostname\fR
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBcheck-hostname\fR script is a migration aid for \fBsendmail\fR(8). This
script tries to determine the local host's fully-qualified host name (FQHN) in
a manner similar to \fBsendmail\fR(8). If \fBcheck-hostname\fR is able to
determine the \fBFQHN\fR of the local host, it reports success. Otherwise,
\fBcheck-hostname\fR reports how to reconfigure the system so that the
\fBFQHN\fR can be properly determined.
